Hello. I joined the society two years ago. I’m a Griner. First thank you for all the work you put in on presentation. Please, can you tell me how you got the baptism records? The original Griner was Johann Casper Griner. I think he went by Casper. I have seen his name as J. Casper, Casper and Phillip Casper Griner. I live in Pennsylvania so it’s hard to make it for the events. But I’m going to try this summer.

I was watching your video when some names popped out at me and we have some ancestors in common. Your Jospeh and Sarah Anderson. Was he born in New Bern, NC Mary Anderson Mikell and William would be my great aunt and uncle.

That is quite possible. Joseph & Sarah Anderson's oldest son, John F. Anderson, had many children. I have met dozens of descendants who come through John. There seem to be fewer who descend from the other children.

Thanks for your help. Why do you not put original photos and documents in binders, I thought that was the reason for doing genealogy?
@statesboro-bullochcountyli8445 Жыл бұрын
You always want to make digital copies of your originals, and it is recommended to use the copies in the binders instead of the originals. The originals should be stored separately to preserve them for as long as possible. If the binder is lost or damaged, and it has your originals, then everything is lost. This is one of the main reasons for only keeping copies in the binder.

I would suggest naming documents with surname first. Example, Lindroth, N. Date. , When you view your folders using “details” vs “icons” the names will sort into alpha order within each folder. All items for the same person will be together. Easy to edit item names. Also your cemetery images should include cemetery name/description. This info may be somewhere else in your files, but if you shared this folder no one would know how to locate the stone. Perhaps a word document with all of the cemetery info and an abbreviation to be included in your image notation. Thank you for a very informative presentation.

I do my numbering based on my pedigree chart. I am #1, Dad #2, Mom #3, etc. Any child outside of direct ancestor is numbered in order of their birth. I am not going to put family group sheets in page protectors. That adds to much bulk for me. I do copies of family photos and store the originals. Everything is also backed up digitally. I think as long as you leave a simple enough system for future generations you'll be ok. But you're right about consistency. I started back in the day at the library and archives and doing everything in paper. I've been doing digital for a long time, even though I do have binders. Now I am trying to organize almost 40 years of research into nice presentable binders. I enjoyed your video. Very helpful! Everyone can always use new ideas no matter how long they have been wading through the papers and photos. ALSO, I wanted to add in case people don't know, a military stone for a documented veteran can be put up for free through the government. Just FYI

Where do you get the group sheets? Did you make them yourself?
@statesboro-bullochcountyli8445 Жыл бұрын
Most basic genealogy forms can be found on AncestryLibrary and downloaded. Check to see if your local library has AncestryLibrary, this is a link to the forms: www.ancestry.com/cs/charts-and-forms You can also search for a a family group sheet here: www.archives.gov/files/research/genealogy/charts-forms/family-group-sheet.pdf

Interesting information. I'm researching my direct lines and any and all possible collateral lines in Italian records starting in 1823 (first year for the records available online). I've tried a number of different organization methods for my notes. I think I finally hit upon one that will work. The main problems are the same given names being used over and over. And even going by just the names of married couples is not foolproof. There can be more than one couple within the town who have EXACTLY the same first and last names. So I decided to use letter and number systems. I designate birth/baptism records as B1, B2, B3, etc. Marriage records as M1, M2, M3, etc. And death records as D1, D2, D3, etc. And then I use a number system for couples in reference to their order of appearance in the records. And use their fathers' names and/or places of origin (if different than the town in question) to more specifically identify them. "FALLETTI 1" is the designation for Michele Falletti, the son of Michele Falletti (deceased) married to Domenica Berta, the daughter of Michele Berta (deceased). I use Italian 'shorthand' in my description: "Michele Falletti fu Michele & Domenica Berta fu Michele". Records (between 1823 to 1826) associated with this couple are one: 1823: B3. The birth of their son, Firmino Paolo Falletti. FALLETTI 2 is the designation for (Italian shorthand): "Michele Falletti fu Giovanni Battista & Catterina Vallero di Bernardo/fu Bernardo". Catterina's father, Bernardo Vallero, died during the time frame of the records in question (1823 to 1826). Records (between 1823 to 1826) associated with this couple (FALLETTI 2) are 1823: B3 (Catterina was godmother to the baby born to FALLETTI 1); 1824: B16 (birth of Giovanni Battista Falletti, son of FALLETTI 2) and 1826: B33 (birth of Bernardo Antonio Falletti, another son of FALLETTI 2). The aforementioned Bernardo Vallero was my fourth great-grandfather. Hopefully this system will make it easier for me to keep the families separate in my notes. My previous attempts at a system: First keeping all persons (male and female alphabetically by given names) in lists based on their fathers' given names...and second: Listing them alphabetically by the husband's given names and kept separately by the wives' names -- proved unsatisfactory. There was no way to determine if the individuals were children of the same father. And there were occasions when there was more than one married couple with EXACTLY the same first and last names AND that it is not uncommon to find someone listed by a different given name in different records. "Giovanni Battista Falletti" (for example) might be listed in his birth record as "Giovanni Battista Firmino Falletti." As a witness to his brother's marriage he might be listed as "Giovanni Falletti." His death record might have him listed as "Battista Falletti."

When you say, "put it in a bag", what do you mean by bag? Obviously, it's different from a plastic sleeve or a memory box but what is it?

On ydna the name also might change because of adoption and people who changed their last name and some countries did not pass surnames down the same way. Also on very rare occassions this dna can mutate.

I found the whole experience totally underwhelming. In fact I would go so far as to say it's all a bit of a rip off. The "results" tended to be "ball park" generalities, really hedging bets. Almost like a 21st century horoscope...

It was super for me, as I came to learn of a first cousin no one had ever told me existed. (That particular side of my family is exceedingly broken.) She is a good friend now though we have yet to meet in person. I'm sure there are a lot of adoptees who have found family members who also do not consider the DNA companies to be a ripoff. It has allowed them to find their mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers in so many cases where the paper trail was hidden or otherwise unhelpful.

i wouldn't call it a rip off, the dna matches with family are spot on. but the ethnicity matches are just estimates. the more people take the test, your results change. but those matches are spot on lol

Maybe I missed it, but did you mention which company would be better if your main interest is not ethnicity and genealogy but rather looking to see for instance if you are adopted who you might be closely related to? In that case wouldn't AncestryDNA be a better choice since they have more people in their database?
